A                                       D 
I was looking back to see if you were looking back to see 
            A                              B             E  
If I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me 
          A                              D  
You were cute as you could be standing looking back at me

And it was plain to see that I'd enjoy your company 
 
Verse 
A                              D 
One Sunday afternoon as I was ridin' down the street 
   A                           B            E 
I met a cute little girl all dressed up so neat 
         A                                      D          
And the way that she was stacked I wish I'd've had a Cadillac 
     A                         E                A 
For who would notice me just drivin' this model T 
 
Chorus 
A                                       D 
I was looking back to see if you were looking back to see 
            A                              B             E  
If I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me 
          A                              D  
You were cute as you could be standing looking back at me 
    A                               E           A 
And it was plain to see that I'd enjoy your company

Now listen baby it don't matter to me 
     A                          B              E 
Even in your model T you're as cute as you can be 
           A                         D  
If you'll take me for a ride I will set close by your side 
    A                                 E           A 
And I will guarantee that we'll have fun on man alive 
 
 
A                                       D

If I was looking back to see if you were looking back at me 
          A                              D  
You were cute as you could be standing looking back at me 
    A                               E           A 
And it was plain to see that I'd enjoy your company 
 
Bridge 
A   D      A       B

If I wadn't drivin' this model T 
 
 
        A                              D

    A                               E           A 
And it was plain to see that I'd enjoy your company
